< "THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 1930 L) { _-- PRL we oy, A Peter Tries to Call Jerry Muskrat , By Thornton W. Burgess Be sure you know just what te do, Lest you in vain your action rue, Did Mother Nature Peter Rabbit sat\ on the bank of the Smiling Pool. The Black Shad- ows lay heavy across lal of it. It "was very still and thie 'water was as smooth as a sheet of, glass, Peter wis catching for Jerry Muskrat, He had seen and heard nothing of Jer- ry, He wondered if Jerry could be somewhere over in those Black Sha- dows. You sce, Peter wanted some- body to talk to, Redwing the Black- bird had gone to sleep long ago. For some unknown reason, Grandfather Frog was nowhere about, There was no one. There was a sharp, sudden boom just over Peter's head that made him jump, Yes, sir, it actually made Wim jump You see, it 3 so wholly une expected that for an instant Peter didn't realize who or what had made that noise. Then he realized that It was Boomer the Nighthawk, Boomer had swooped down in that headlong way of his to check himself just above Peter's head, making that loud noise, And then his swift wings ha taken him up in the air dgain, Peter hadn't, even had time to protest, The faintiest of faint odors tickled the wabbly- little nose of Peter, It was an odor that he recognized. It was an odor that he never got any- where excepting around the Smiling Poal, or in certain places along the Laughing Brook and the Big River. Peter 'sniffed two or three times and finally. caught it again, i "Terry is somewhere around," said Peter with a grin, "for that is his own special perfume, that 1 smell, Several others of my acquaintance carry pers fume. but none like that that Jerry Muskrat likes so much" Of course, Peter meant the musk which has given Jerry the name of muskrat. Unlike Jimmy Skunk's Jerry Muserat s perfume is hot un- leasant. Peter rather enjoyed it as he sniffed and sniffed, for it was not 160" strong. 'Then, too, he felt cer: tain that Jerry must be near, or there would be none of that odor, "I know what I'll do," thought Pe- ter, 1 told Jerry Muskrat that 1 would not thump on the roof of his house, I won't thump to be mean, but KN just call him, Tf ] thump once or twice he'll know I'm here and then perhaps he'll come out. It's a ood thing that I know just where fis house 4s in the bank. 1f, 1 didn't I wouldn't know where to come, | won't thump hard, I'll thump light. ty and: Jerry will understand." So Peter hopped along until he jud- ged, he 'was right ever Jerry Musk- rat's house. To make sure, he peered over the edge of the hank, Me could see an entrance under water--sa hole, Peter hopped back a little why, #0 "udcto ger right over Jerry's bedroom, At least, that was what he was try- ing to do. He knew that from that opening down under water a quite long hall led at a slant up to snug bedroom just a little way below the Rrassroots. Peter thumped lightly : then hop~ ped Byer to the edge of the bank and looken aswn, He expected to see Terry Muskrat come out of that hole down under water, Jerry didn't come out, So, after waiting a few minutes, HONE 22 For Your Drug Needs THOMPSON'S | 10 Simcoe St. 8. -- We Deliver -- mas "Machinery Repairi NUTHING io Spating NOTHING TOU SMALL * Adanac Machine Shop 161 King St. W, "hone 1214 Porta et = possne i = iz Hiapy "Jorry is somewhere around," ssid Peter with a grin, Peter went back and thumped again, this time a little harder than before.

"There!" said he, will wake him up been sound asleep." Then Peter once again hurried to the cdge of the bank and looked down.
